Kuromi Special Doll Handover Party

The Kuromi Special Doll Handover Party (クロミスペシャルドールお渡し会) was an event at Sanrio Harmonyland that ran as part of its 30th anniversary celebrations. The event is focused on Kuromi, to tie into the release of a new Kuromi plush. At the event, participants were given their own Kuromi plush, handed over from the Kuromi mascot and were given an opportunity to take photos/videos.

The Kuromi plush the event focused on and a smaller keychain variant were also made available at the "Country Market" section of Harmonyland, starting from September 3, 2021, with their addition to the online shop coming the day after. The main plush itself was limited to a quantity of 150 produced, with each plush toy's serial number (ranging from 001 to 150) embroided on its feet. Dolls marked 041 onwards were sold in Country Market.

Event Details
Access to the event was limited to 20 groups on each day of the event - with each group being a max of two people (excluding children under two years old), with electronic tickets needing to be purchased in advance. Tickets went on sale on August 7, 2021 from 9pm onwards.

During the event, participants had the option to record the event or take pictures themselves, though staff could also take pictures. However, due to Covid-19 precautions, contact with the Kuromi mascot was not allowed.

Lottery Distribution
Due to online order cancellations, 8 of the Kuromi plush toys were left over. A lottery event was held on October 31, 2021, where between 10am and 11am Harmonyland visitors could recieve lottery tickets from the Country Market shop to potentially win a chance to buy one of the leftover plush toys. At 1pm that same day, the winners were announced. From there winners had to return to Country Market in order to buy their plush for ¥27,500.

In the event that less than 8 people get tickets, the plush toys would then go on sale regularly at 1pm in the Country Market shop rather than winners being announced.
